Yes, the Transatlantic are abominable, they give me the chills (and the balls).

Yes, there was something that reminded me of Opeth, a few final seconds of a Reaptance solo that could very well have been played by Akerfeldt and co... I didn't write it in the review out of kindness X-D

I really like the early Opeth up to Blackwater Park, I can't stand Porcupine Tree too much (except for the early albums), I have distanced myself from the prog power style of SymphoniX, which isn't very different from the DT style. I'm aware of bands like Meshuggah, which I can still listen to occasionally. Ah, Tool.. I like them up to Aenima.

I know many of the classic prog bands of the 70s (Genesis, Rush, King Crimson, Floyd, Soft Machine, Jethro Tull, etc.), and contemporary stuff like Mars Volta, Aghora, Cynic, Spyral Architect (which I'm not crazy about). I haven't been very interested in Italian bands, sticking for now to the classics like PFM, Banco, Le Orme, and so on.

Thanks, but it depends on both interlocutors. With someone like deadHorse, for example, who starts off by calling me a pompous jerk, what do you want to talk about? Marinated artichokes and stuffed peppers? Just that, hehe ;-P

Well, the tone is deliberately cynical because, unfortunately, the album is quite rich in such similarities, so I'm starting to feel irritated if every song by the Dt recalls three others from different bands or their previous albums. Not to mention the lack of expressiveness in these resemblances.

"The resemblance is very forced, without a doubt it can be sung, it seems to me a senseless attack." Do you agree with me or not? I don't understand...

Well, I'm no longer so convinced that it's a milestone pitera I&W...the matter is too lengthy, and it probably will never be resolved.
Dream Theater Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From a Memory

"Returning to music, I hate the Pixies, hardcore or post-punk, their out-of-tune voices and out-of-tune guitars. And do you know why it's hard to find references in this music? Simply because they don't create melodies." ...Ehm, the Pixies are 50% Pop, you'll find as many melodies as you want. It’s clear that you’ve never listened to them.
